a couple quick questions I have...

1) are there any bugs that would be bad to feed to one's VFT??
2) Would it be bad to immediately stick a VFT in filtered sun, or should I just gradually push it into the sun? (My bay window has several large Pecan trees outside which give a lot of shade and for the sun that does get through, which is quite a lot at times, is filtered through a window screen, for your info)
3) Would it be bad to feed all the traps in one day or should I spread the feeding out a little bit?

More questions on the way I'm sure...
Thanks in advance for the help!!

Feed all your traps at once and they'll die.
One trap once a week max. (Or buy more plants

Good luck with your CP.

I've never had that happen with mine.

I have my vft's outside and the traps are digesting bugs most of the time.
 
Yeah, they're awesome. How many did you order? I ordered 26, and got 36. Now I'm ordering 10 more.

I received a BUNCH of extras when I ordered mine. PFT is good about throwing in the extras!
